The cries of apes could be heard on both sides of the river, and the light boat had already passed thousands of mountains.
Although the Sunset was not fast at sea, its speed was far faster than at sea due to the Three Dragons River and the Roaring River, even if the cabin was filled with mountains of materials.
Soon, it arrived at Little River Heart Castle.
Little River Heart Castle held three Sacred Swordsmen. One was Debora Rainflower, one was Count Heron, and the last was Yevich Rainflower.
Marquis Wildtao sent someone to participate in the ransom discussion of the three followers. The final result of the discussion was that Count Heron would pay two grains, a magic ingredient sprite, and an ordinary sprite; Debora would pay two grains, a magic ingredient sprite, and two ordinary sprites.
Moreover, the sprite's lifespan could not exceed fifty years.
As for Yevich, Marquis Wildtao had already given up and did not intend to pay any ransom for him.
"That's awkward, Yevich can't sell for a price!" Levis was very depressed about Marquis Wildtao's decision. A Sacred Swordsmen follower had been casually thrown away like cabbages, "As a marquis, you have no sense of civility, trash can't be thrown away!"
In fact, Yevich was equally embarrassed. He naturally understood that Marquis Wildtao would not pay much for him, but it was too humiliating for him not to even offer a price!
He suddenly made up his mind: "Sir, Yevich is willing to follow Sir and start all over again, abandoning any identity in the Eagle Kingdom!"
As matters stood, he had become a burden that could not be shaken off.
Liszt pondered for a long time, and finally came up with a decision: "You decided to start all over again. As benevolent as I am, I cannot help but give you a chance. How about this, I don't want your sprites, but they must be planted in my territory and given to me for safekeeping. As for you … "
Yevich had two useless water sprites and fourteen sprite worms.
Sprite worms had too few contracts, and replacing them was too troublesome. Moreover, among them, only one 'Hundred Erect Sprite Worm' could be planted, while one 'Sweet Potato Sprite Worm' could be planted with the grain sweet potato, which was a bit valuable. It was not cost-effective to contract them, so it was better to use them as a tool to control the other party.
"Sir, please instruct me, Yevich has no objections!"
"I plan to have you explore the sea and search for new habitable islands outside the Grand Duchy of Sapphire. Every island you find will be equivalent to a battle achievement. If you can find a big island like the Iron Hoof Island, it won't be a problem to make you a count … You should believe that I have the power to make you a count, right? "
Yevich answered without hesitation, "I have complete trust in you, my lord!"
"So you agree to explore the sea and find the island?"
"Yes, my lord."
"Swear your allegiance."
After the ceremony of allegiance, Yevich officially became a white follower of Liszt, and the title given by the Eagle Kingdom in the past had been abandoned. When the oath was completed, his identity would naturally change, and he would not be able to return to the past. An oath of allegiance under the watchful eyes of the public had a clear legal effect.
Now that he was free again, Yevich did not know whether to be happy or sad.
For a person, a Sword Saint to end up like this, there was really nothing to comfort himself about. Furthermore, he was also disgusted by the war. He had been on the run for half his life and was getting worse and worse. It was better to explore the sea alone. He did not have to deal with the intrigues and fighting among the nobles.
Looking at Yevich, who was somewhat dispirited, Liszt did not care.
He did not want Yevich to participate in the Knight's War again, because this guy's character was not guaranteed. If he changed factions again, it would be a loss.
He might as well send him to find a new island.
In this case, without Liszt's support, Yevich would not be able to establish a foothold in the sea, and there would be no need to consider defection or the like. Moreover, he also needed a powerful Knight to lead a fleet to complete the investigation for him and find a suitable island to establish a country on.
Overthrowing the Sapphire Family was just a record, and this option would only be activated when it was confirmed that the large guild had fallen out with him.
He did not like that kind of life of fighting all day, and was more willing to establish a country on the island and live a life of peace. When he was poor and hungry, he would go to the mainland, just like the Sapphire Family's development order.
Especially after he developed new sailboat manufacturing technology, when the time came, he wanted to circle around the mainland, seize all the islands, and establish his own power. Domesticating the mainland and turning it into his own private garden was just a thought, but it was too difficult to realize.
To solve the problem of Yevich's followers.
Little River Heart Castle also welcomed Marquis Wildtao's team to pay the ransom. The ransom for the two Sacred Swordsmen could be raised by themselves, but the Roaring Orders of Chivalry Knight needed Marquis Wildtao to be responsible for a large number of captives.
The ransom had already been basically determined during this period of wrangling, and now it was only the handover.
On Count Heron's side, his family brought three sprites. They were the cereal category wheat sprite, the sisal sprite, and the ordinary ornamental plant "green bean sprite". Sisal was a cereal category, and its value was very high. Not only could it be made into ropes, but it could also be used as livestock feed.
On Dibora's side, he personally handed over the four sprites – namely, the Coptis sprite of the potion category, the Corn sprite of the grain category, the ordinary Apple sprite and the Turning White Grass sprite. The Apple sprite could grow apples, while the Turning White Grass sprite could probably grow weeds.
On Marquis Wildtao's side, not only did he bring a large number of gold coins, seeds, and other materials, he also had to hand over two sprites. They were the tobacco sprite and the pine sprite. Tobacco was used to make cigarettes, and the pine sprite was a more commonly used wood, and was also a grain.
All the sprites were contracted to Liszt. Looking at the nine sprites around him, one could imagine the excitement in his heart.
War was indeed the best way to get rich.
After farming on the island for more than two years, he had only obtained one big sprite and six sprites. But this time, in less than a month, he had obtained nine sprites. If Yevich's two water peanut sprites were counted, he had a total of eleven!
The most important thing was.
Most of them were cereal and magic ingredient sprites. These sprites were even more valuable.
"If it wasn't for Alonso coming back at any time, I really wanted to stay here and continue to capture the Sky Knight for ransom. In a year and a half, I'm afraid the sprites will fill a room. "Liszt thought happily as he looked at the ransom team constantly pulling away supplies.
The Count only had one big sprite and twelve sprites.
And he already had one big sprite and fifteen sprites, not counting the two water peanut sprites. It could be said that he became rich overnight.
… …
Late August.
Liszt, who was full of harvest, said goodbye to William before taking the Sunset out to sea. "Father, I'll leave things here to you. I'll wait for your return on Coral Island."
"Go, although the war is not over, your development order is over. After you go back, practice on Black Horse Island. Don't worry about too many things, and strive to understand the spiritual power of the Ghostblade as soon as possible. "
"I know. Enchantress Phoebe, Night Demon Wimbledon, and One-eyed Uso will be under your command. Although their combat power is relatively average, they are the most suitable eyes."
The Count looked at the three vampires wrapped in black cloaks. "Okay."
So.
The Sunset weighed anchor.
